If you follow me on Instagram, you know I love a good coffee shop (and apparently I use the same caption every time… see photos below lol)! I do love my Starbucks, but honestly the best coffee around doesn’t come from this kind of chain. Below I am sharing some of my favorite coffee shops from the Chicago ‘burbs!

• Sparrow Coffee: Hands down, my favorite. This place is so good, and the inside is one of the cutest coffee shops ever. It’s a refreshing addition to the chain-filled streets of Downtown Naperville!
  • My Order: Nonfat Caramel Latte (hot or iced) (in a ‘for-here’ cup, so they do the cute design of course.
  • 

• Krema Coffee: This was such a neat addition to downtown Plainfield. Krema has a book/reading nook and the comfiest spots to camp out to work.
  • My Order: Flat White
  • 

• Two Brothers: My favorite place to work! You’ve most likely heard of their beer, but their coffee is even better! Best part- free refills and my fav. breakfast!
  • My Order: Regular Coffee & A Bacon Egg & Cheese breakfast bowl

• Calibre Coffee: This is in the South Barrington Arboretum, and the perfect stop for a coffee while shopping. I love their patio!
  • My Order: Iced Vanilla Latte

• Brewpoint Coffee: Cutest little shop off of the Wheaton train stop… AND Gluten Free muffins!
  • My Order: Regular Iced Coffee & a GF Muffin

• Endiro: Guys, saving one of the best for last. I ignored this place for FOREVER. It’s in the heart of downtown Aurora, which isn’t somewhere I go often… but it is amazing. The best almond milk latte ever (and its HUGE), amazing tea, and their food is great.
  • Caramel Almond Milk Latte & a Bacon, Sausage & Cheese breakfast sandwich on gluten free bread
